High Voltage Power Line Siting Criteria

Abstract

The Technical Report describes the work performed under Contract F30602-67-C-0171. The objective was to develop a High Voltage Power Line Siting Criteria so that communication sites can be selected which will be seriously affected by radio interference from existing power lines, or proposed lines in the vicinity of the communication site. A High Voltage Power Line Siting Criteria was developed and reported for power lines rated 2.4 kV through 345 kV, and covering the frequency spectrum of 60 Hertz through one Gigahertz. This Technical Report extends the Siting Criteria to power lines operating at 525 kV ac, 735 kV ac and 800 kV dc, covering the frequency range from 60 Hz to 10 GHz. Also the investigation of the radio noise and frequency spectrum of the 345-kV lines studied in the previous contract has been extended to 10 GHz.
